Financial
Financial Highlights* 37 2024: Revenue & Grants: Target is set at $13m ($11 million in revenue and $2 million in grants). Most of the revenue is already contracted and subject to Advent delivering against milestones. IPCEI should bring another $3 million to $5 million that are not included in the abovementioned target. Costs: Cost reduction by Operations and Facilities consolidation with path to $24m total 2024 costs , a drop of almost 50% from previous year . Reduction mostly in overhead, facilities, and streamlining of acquired companies’ operations. Company may increase spending in R&D if new financing/funding is in place, or in Cost of Goods sold if new profitable contracts are secured. 2o26: Path to $60m revenue & grants inflows by 2026 is still the target assuming significant support from EU is in place. Goal for EBITDA positive by 2026. Strategy: Growth strategy relying on technology transfer and strategic partnerships with world - leading organizations. License out Serene product for the Stationary Market. Customer focus on 10 - years+ service agreements further justify this strategy. Grow and develop Strategic Partnerships in Aerospace, Marine, Defense, Automotive. Avoid direct sales to price sensitive markets to limit sales and distribution costs, working capital costs, and negative gross margin. *See “Disclaimer” regarding forward - looking statements, projections and targets .

Technology Resilience at Extreme Environments Logistics Liquid eFuel – ready (Methanol) Efficiency Heat - Management HT - PEM: USPs vs LT - PEM No - water in the fuel cell membrane results in simpler system that can operate in hot or cold environments efficiently. HT - PEM works at ideal temperature for heat rejection, thus maximizing efficiency and allowing operation in hot weather climates. LT - PEM cannot cool fast meaning it is not suitable for Aerospace and Heavy - Duty tracks. Heavy - Duty Automotive Operates at extreme ambient temperatures (from May’s tarmac heat in Mumbai to well below zero at 10,000km high). Aerospace Methanol is a liquid, easy - to - transport, and refill hydrogen carrier available in more than 100 ports globally. Marine Can operate in the most polluted of cities or toughest environmental conditions. Transporting compressed H2 off - grid doesn’t make economic sense. Methanol is a simple green choice.

SereneP: Comparison with Batteries 44 Advent’s SereneP System Vs Battery - Only Solution Comparison SereneP (Fuel Cell + Battery) Fuel cells charge the battery, providing unlimited green power generation. Logistics Cost Emissions No Recharging Constant power potential limited only by fuel supply. Lower Cost Significantly lower cost and longer runtime. Lower Emissions 80% reduction when using biomethanol fuel. Requires recharging. Off grid batteries must be transported back to the grid for recharging every day. Higher cost and less runtime. Batteries charging from the grid in most countries result in higher net emissions. Battery - only Solution Battery powered generators.
No Range Anxiety. No Battery Recharging. No Noise.
